Oh yes, I have seen such pictures many times but never such a question raised in my mind that why Krishna is always shown blue and not in normal skin colour? Even though he was an Avatar of Lord Vishnu, he was born as a human being, isn’t it? So suddenly I stopped searching and started thinking. Many poets express Krishna as dark or black skin and every artist has shown Krishna in blue colour. Ninety per cent of those paintings shows Krishna with totally blue in skin. I was almost lost in searching the picture for my wallpaper, and what I found is that, in all those depictions, there was one common link. I tell you, there were many such beautiful paintings to confuse you to pick the best. The artists all over the world have depicted the lord as a toddler with lots of butter in his hand and tiny mouth, or a young smart boy with a flute in hands and peacock feather on his head, a lush green background and Radha-Krishna on swing and in some paintings he is shown driving the chariot of Arjuna. I started scrolling through the pictures (or practically paintings) to get the best among all. So to stay in the stream, I also planned to change the wallpaper on my laptop before I start my work and search for lord Krishna’s pics on our current technical lord ‘Google’ and found as many as thousands of finest pics of Krishna on my screen. As today is Krishna Janmashtmi, we can see our Lord Krishna in almost every news channel, on Instagram, Facebook posts, in whats-app statuses of everyone.
